The most famous and best known prophecies about the popes are those attributed to St. Malachy, a medieval Irish priest and Kabbalist. In 1139 he went to Rome to give an account of the affairs of his diocese to the pope, Innocent II, who promised him two palliums for the metropolitan Sees of Armagh and Cashel. While at Rome, he received (according to the Abbot Cucherat) the strange vision of the future wherein was unfolded before his mind the long list of illustrious pontiffs who were to rule the Church until the end of time. The same author tells us that St. Malachy gave his manuscript to Innocent II to console him in the midst of his tribulations, and that the document remained unknown in the Roman Archives until its discovery in 1590 (Cucherat, "Proph. de la succession des papes", ch. xv). They were first published by Arnold de Wyon, and ever since there has been much discussion as to whether they are genuine predictions of St. Malachy or forgeries. The silence of 400 years on the part of so many learned authors who had written about the popes, and the silence of St. Bernard especially, who wrote the "Life of St. Malachy," is a strong argument against their authenticity, but it is not conclusive if we adopt Cucherat's theory that they were hidden in the Archives during those 400 years.

These short prophetical announcements, in number 112, indicate some noticeable trait of all future popes from Celestine II, who was elected in the year 1130, until the end of the world. They are enunciated under mystical titles. Those who have undertaken to interpret and explain these symbolical prophecies have succeeded in discovering some trait, allusion, point, or similitude in their application to the individual popes, either as to their country, their name, their coat of arms or insignia, their birth-place, their talent or learning, the title of their cardinalate, the dignities which they held etc. For example, the prophecy concerning Urban VIII is Lilium et Rosa (the lily and the rose); he was a native of Florence and on the arms of Florence figured a fleur-de-lis; he had three bees emblazoned on his escutcheon, and the bees gather honey from the lilies and roses. Again, the name accords often with some remarkable and rare circumstance in the pope's career; thus Peregrinus apostolicus (pilgrim pope), which designates Pius VI, appears to be verified by his journey when pope into Germany, by his long career as pope, and by his expatriation from Rome at the end of his pontificate. Those who have lived and followed the course of events in an intelligent manner during the pontificates of Pius IX, Leo XIII, and Pius X cannot fail to be impressed with the titles given to each by the prophecies of St. Malachy and their wonderful appropriateness: Crux de Cruce (Cross from a Cross) Pius IX; Lumen in caelo (Light in the Sky) Leo XIII; Ignis ardens (Burning Fire) Pius X. There is something more than coincidence in the designations given to these three popes so many hundred years before their time. We need not have recourse either to the family names, armorial bearings or cardinalatial titles, to see the fitness of their designations as given in the prophecies. The afflictions and crosses of Pius IX were more than fell to the lot of his predecessors; and the more aggravating of these crosses were brought on by the House of Savoy whose emblem was a cross. Leo XIII was a veritable luminary of the papacy. The present pope is truly a burning fire of zeal for the restoration of all things to Christ.

The last of these prophecies concerns the end of the world and is as follows: "In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations, after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people. The End." It has been noticed concerning Petrus Romanus, who according to St. Malachy's list is to be the last pope, that the prophecy does not say that no popes will intervene between him and his predecessor designated Gloria olivoe. It merely says that he is to be the last, so that we may suppose as many popes as we please before "Peter the Roman." Cornelius a Lapide refers to this prophecy in his commentary "On the Gospel of St. John" (C. xvi) and "On the Apocalypse" (cc. xvii-xx), and he endeavours to calculate according to it the remaining years of time (Catholic Encyclopedia, 1913).

conspiracy)."  Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian World
Through Monasticism

"Gregory VII of Tuscany, part of the Carolingian kingdom of the Franks,
and Cluniac monk becomes pope and transforms the Church into a legal
institution with a monarchial form of government. He seems not to have played
his "expected role" as he came into conflict with the Holy Roman Emperor when
he issued a general ban on lay investiture. He died exiled captive of the
Normans." Ibid.

"Urban II, French Prior of Cluny (Reformed Benedictines) becomes the
pope. Urban was of the "Eudes" family, not only the name of the King of the
Franks, Eudes, who ruled 888 to 898 and considered one of the antecedent kings
of the Capetian House of France, but also the name of the Royal Capetian line
of Burgundy, great grandson of Hugh Capet, Eudes I the RED of Burgundy who
acceded 1079, NINE years before Urban (Eudes) became pope. And Eudes the Red
acceded in that specific year because his brother, Hugh I of Burgundy, had
abdicated to become the Prior of Cluny! Now something is very amiss here! Is
this just coincidence? Both were sons of Henry of Burgundy who married Sibylle
of Barcelona. Henry was son of Robert I of Burgundy, who was the son of Hugh
Capet. Barcelona, home of their mother, was part of the Spanish March
connected to Septimania and, here too, the Duke of Aquitaine in 1012 was Eudes
of Aquitaine! And Aquitaine and Septimania are extremely significant:

It happens that Septimania (Languedoc) is exactly where
the Jesus-Magdalene heresy flourished, and where there was a large population
of Cathar Jews who were given independent status by Pepin, Carolingian King.
Thence their own kings ruled as: "seed of the Royal House of David," each
acknowledged as "King of the Jews". . ."  Ibid.

Gloria olivae
Benedict means "Blessed by God." Prior to his elevation to the Purple, Joseph
Alois Ratzinger was Prefect of the Holy Office of the Supreme Sacred
Congregation of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (previously
known as The Roman and Universal Inquisition). As a staunch defender of the
Church his immediate personna is one of hard line orthodoxy. He is an opponent
of homosexuality, same-sex marriage, euthanasia, and abortion.

In his retirement this "false prophet" and "Glory of the olive" resides still in Rome as Pope Emeritus, His Holiness (sic) Benedict XVI, and continues to wear his papal ring (see below) which explains the contemporaneous popes prophesied in Revelation 19:20 and 20:10.

268

Francis I (2013-)

112

In persecutione extrema S.R.E. sedebit Petrus Romanus, qui pascet oues in multis tribulationibus: quibus transactis ciuitas septicollis diruetur, & Iudex tremędus iudicabit populum suum. Finis.
(In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by
Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations, at the term of which the city of seven hills will be destroyed [in accordance with Revelation 18:4-20], and the formidable Judge will judge his people. The End.)

On March 13, 2013, Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of the Jewish Society of Jesus, former right hand man to Jesuit Superiors General Pedro Arrupe and Peter-Hans Kolvenbach was named Pope Francis I after St. Francis of Assisi whose full name was Francesco di Pietro (Peter) di Bernardone, an Italian who was once a beggar in Rome, effectively making Bergoglio "Peter the Roman." Francis I is the first Jesuit and the first from the Americas to be elected Pope. He is the first non-European pope since Syrian-born Pope Gregory III, who served for ten years (731–741). Francis I is well-qualified to be pope of the cloven hoof, fulfilling Revelation 17:11; 13:3-10 and I Thessalonians 5:3 and the final prophecy of St. Malachy. If this be so he will also fulfill Brother Branham's prophesy of the final pope after the brief 'hot stage' of World War III: "I believe, one of these glorious days, when this united confederation of church goes together, and the new pope is brought out of the United States and put over there [in Jerusalem] according to prophecy [Daniel 7:25-25; 8:23-25; 9:27; 11:32-35; Revelation 13], then they'll form an image like unto the beast [the United States and Rome's (once) Protestant daughter churches]" (Acts of the Holy Spirit, p. 12:87).

According to Daniel 9:27, Revelation 13 and 17:10-18, Satan will incarnate the last pontiff who will deify himself and break Rome's covenant with the Jewish banksters. It is claimed Malachy made only 111
predictions and that the Benedictines devised pope 112 in order to dissociate their order from the "Beast" so that John Paul II's successor should be the final pope. However "Gloria olivae" resides still in Rome as Pope Emeritus, His Holiness (sic) Benedict XVI, and it appears Malachy's prophecy of popes 111 and 112 are intended to be conjoined in accordance with the two popes mentioned in Revelation 19:20, and 20:10. This scripture is reinforced by the fact Pope Benedict was the first pope to receive the Ring of St. Peter after it was re-instated by John Paul II who did not wear the ring, and contrary to custom Pope Benedict XVI did not destroy his ring but "disabled the seal" and now wears the ring contemporaneously with Pope Francis I, enjoining both to St. Petersomething that has never happened in the history of the false church, but fulfilling Jesus' prophecy!

Partial List of "Jewish" Popes

Jew Gert Haendler: Kirchengeschichte, Evangelische Verlagsanstalt Berlin, 1980
Jew * Das Papsttum, Breitkopf & Haertel 1904. Pope Leo X was a Medici (i.e. Khazar Black Nobility) and Clement VII was his cousin.
Jew ** Khazar Black Nobility whose father was a banker brought to Rome in Rothschild employ.
Jew ***Paul VI, Montini, was Jew according to the Blue Book of prominent families in Italy.
Jew **** Mother was a Jew, maiden name "Katz" Polonised as "Kaczorowska".
Jew ***** whose family had been accepted into the annals of Roman nobility more than a century before his birth. (The Broken Cross  The Hidden Hand in the Vatican by Piers Compton, p. 51).

Despite the fact there was no such office or word as "pope" until about the fourth century and that Peter was neither Roman Catholic nor pope, commencing with Peter, the first ten popes were "Jews" of some description (Philip I by William Thomas Walsh, Shead & Ward London, 1938).
